Chapter 16: Invitations

Max and Spencer had things to do that Sunday so they decided to see each other at night for dinner and movies.

He had to visit his mother and she will help help her sister with some decorations she had to do for the homecoming dance.

"So why did you and your friends picked to do the Sadie Hawkins dance?" Max asked while she cut some snowflakes.

"Because last year the seniors organized the dance and we all were alone because no one invited us. They were too shy to invite us" she commented as she was painting some other things "we all have dates already. I invited the hockey's captain, Hank. He's super hot" said Eloise laughing.

"I thought you like a football player" said Max smirking.

"I did but he started to date a cheerleader so my second choice was Hank" said Eloise cutting some shapes.

"Bad luck" Max laughed "I will play some music" Eloise nodded and Max connected her phone with the bluetooth speaker and they listen in silence still working.

Meanwhile Spencer is at the nurse house to check his mom.

When he was on his way there he got a phone call.

"Here's Doctor Spencer Reid" he answered very formal, as he used to with his work phone.

"Hey Spencer! It's me, Ethan" the voice of the other side of the line said.

"Oh... hey Ethan!" Squeaked the young doctor "it's been a long time since we talk"

"I know right. Man I didn't want to call you because I knew you would be busy"

"Yeah. You know the FBI never rest" he laughed softly "but how have you been?"

"Amazing and you?"

"I had a tough time recently but right now I'm better"

"It sounds like you found a girl" teased him.

Spencer blushed softly "actually, I did. We had been together for 2 months and 3 days"

"You still love number huh?" Said Ethan laughing "Congratulations bro. I'm glad you got someone, alive and not crazy" they laughed "I was calling you because I also met someone. And we are going to get married"

"Wow! Congratulations Ethan. I'm so happy for you" he said smiling "how did you meet her?"

"Two years ago. I was in a bar, playing and she came next. Her voice was the sexiest thing think ever so after her performance I invited her a drink and we talked all night. Then we started to have dates and a few months later she and I became a couple. Last month I asked to marry me and of course she said yes"

"That's amazing! As I said I'm happy for you. When will be the wedding?"

"The second week of December here in New Orleans. We will marry in a old plantation house, remodeled as a hotel. My friend let us celebrate it there and will let the people sleep there with half the price because it's an special event"

"Great" said him as he arrived to the house where his mother was.

"I will send you the invitation and if you want bring your girl. I want to meet the woman who set her eyes on the boy genius" he laughed.

"I will ask her and I will let you know"

"Ok. I will wait to send the invitation for you two"

"Ok and I will see you there"

"Bye man" they both hang up and he walked in.

His mother seemed in a good mood and most importantly, she recognized him. They spoke for some time and he told her about Max.

"I knew something was different with you sweetie. You seem different, happier and less tense" she smiled "you know... a mother knows" he said the last part with her and laughed.

"Yeah I know and I will bring her some day so you can meet her" he smiled at her "I'm sure you will like her"

"If you like her then I will too" he smiled more and hugged her. Then a nurse came to them.

"Diana its time to the reading club, then lunch" the blonde woman nodded and hugged her son then left "oh doctor Reid. Diana's doctor wants to talk to you" he nodded and walked to the office of the doctor.

Back with Max. Michelle joined her two sisters to help them while Sammy was playing with her phone.

They ordered pizza and drank sodas. They had a fun time together talking about the dance.

"We invited a band and in between their show there will be Chistian, a DJ from my math class"

"Sounds like fun" said Max.

"Yeah he's great, he was at Veronica's birthday party and he nailed it"

"You really thought everything"

"Except the chaperones. Veronica's parents are in the middle of a divorce and they were the chaperones" she sighed.

"I think I can ask Spencer to go with me as chaperones" said Max looking at her sister "I don't think i would mind and what's better than a FBI profiler?"

"I love the way you think Maxine" said Eloise and her older sister looked at her a little upset "I'm kidding Max" she laughed with Michelle.

"I will ask Spencer and I will let you know" she nodded and then gets a text from Spencer saying he was on his way to her apartment so she said goodbye to her sisters and leaves to her apartment.

She saved some slides the pizza for him. When she arrived he was out her building so she walked to him after parking her car and kissed him softly.

"I missed you" she said as they walked in the building and up to her apartment.

"I missed you too" he wrapped his arms around her "I visited my mom and her doctor said they are giving her a new treatment for her mental illnesses and they seem like they are working just fine. She recognized me and we had a normal conversation"

"That's amazing babe" she said hugging him as they walked in her apartments.

"And I told her about you" she looked at him surprised and blushed softly "and she can't wait to meet you"

She hugged him "I can't wait to meet her" then she looked at him and bit her lower lip "um... Spencer would you like to go with me to the Sadie Hawkins' dance at Eloise's school?"

"A high school dance?" He looked at her.

"Yeah. We could go as chaperones" she said looking at him "we need to watch the kids and be sure they will behave during this party. There will be teachers too"

"I'm not sure. My high school experience wasn't the best. I was the youngest student and they used me as their personal punching bag"

"Aww poor Spence" she led him to the sofa.

He told her about his high school days and how terrible they were. And she also share hers.

She had a hard time until she joined the soccer team and he told her about his time as assistant coach at the basketball team.

"You can come with me and have your first high school dance. We can dance while we check the kids" she looked him "and this time you won't be that same kid back in then"

He smiled and nodded "ok but just if you go to a wedding with me... an old friend from the FBI academy will get married in a few months and he invited me and when I told him about you he asked me to take you with me"

She smiled and blushed "I would love to" she kissed him then they watched movies as they planned.

Spencer will have his first dance in a high school and Max will have her first big event as his girlfriend.

OOooOOooOO

I'm sorry it took me some more time than usual but I wasn't sure about what to write. The idea of the wedding was old but the high school dance came as I write this.
